(BBC) The brother of a man murdered in an “honour killing” is urging the justice secretary to intervene over the planned release of one of his killers.
In 2004, Mamnoor Rahman was ordered to serve at least 14 years for the murder of Arash Ghorbani-Zarin. Rahman’s brother and father were also convicted.
Kourosh Ghorbani-Zarin said: “The crimes they committed are far more like terrorist offences and ideologies.”
The Parole Board said its decision was made with public safety as a priority.
A Parole Board spokesperson said Rahman, who was 15 at the time of sentencing, was ordered to serve the minimum tariff which expired in January 2019.
